Frugal Family on the Move
The real estate agents are running around in a frenzy, moving vans are flying off the lots like hot cakes and we're all scraping together our pennies to cover first month, last month and security. As the summer comes to a close, so do many of our leases.
– Jamaica Plain
Deal: Here’s a Frugal Family deep, dark secret. Yes – it’s TRULY frugal and fabulous to get a group of people together and help each other move from home to home. But if you’ve been especially good with the budget throughout the year, you might want to treat yourself to movers. And once you’ve experienced trained and professional movers, you may never ask a friend to move again. Try in Jamaica Plain for all of your moving needs. They’re fast, efficient and won’t charge an arm and a leg. Call soon to make your appointment, as they are in high demand!
Good Through: Until further notice.

Deal: There are lots of great places to look for furniture right before the big move. Ask other members of the Frugal Family if they have any chairs or sofas that are cluttering up their homes. Check in with friends. Grab a best buddy and look around your neighborhood on trash day. You’d be amazed at what people just leave on the curb. Or stop by Jamaica Plain’s .

Deal: Just in time for our September movers, 1800Mattress.com is having a great Labor Day Sale on all Simmons mattresses. Take that lumpy old mattress that dear old Frugal Grammy gave you (the one with the springs that stick out which makes sleeping truly an adventure in itself) and give it the heave ho! Replace it with a new, cushy mattress that you can buy for up to 65% off. You’ll sleep so well knowing that your body and your budget are being properly taken care of!

Now is the time to buy that new extension cord!

Deal: And after a long day of squeezing futons up narrow staircases and having miniature nervous breakdowns as you sit in the back of your U-Haul, there’s at least one tasty light at the end of the tunnel – pizza! Pizza is a frugal must-have when you’re thanking your friends and loved ones for struggling up the stairs with your futon. Check out and take advantage of yummy deals like the Superbiotic pizza (artichoke, spinach, bell pepper, mushroom, garlic, red onion, cilantro).
